When Charmeine and Tabbruis were alone, she walked out to the terrace to feel the warm sun on her face. She instantly smelled the fruit of the orchards mixed in the intoxicating smell of the sea breeze. Smoothing her hair, she said, “I must look like a mess.”
Tabbruis said, “You look like an Angel.”
Charmeine shook her head and said weakly, “Tabbruis, I would like to be alone for a while,” and sighed as she sat down on the patio couch.
Tabbruis wanted to grab her and kiss her. He trembled for her touch but he had to remember, the last time they were together, she was planning on leaving him. With the attack a couple days away, Tabbruis had to convince Charmeine he was not the same man who went to get his wife at Smith Point Beach. He was not the same man who thought he was invincible. Tabbruis learned all too well who really had true strength in their relationship, it was Charmeine all along. He knew now only in Charmeine’s love of the family and the power of her faith in God made him strong.
Tabbruis said, “Yes, I will leave, but… I need to say a few things first Charmeine.”
Troubled, shaking, and weak, Tabbruis came and pulled up a chair in front of her.
Very concerned Charmeine asked, “What is it Tabbruis? You are shaking.” She was disturbed because he looked like he was ready to pass out or break down.
Tabbruis took a big breath and looked Charmeine in the eyes and said, “I am sorry Charmeine, for so many things it is hard to express them all… but I am going to try.” He looked exasperated and said, “I am sorry for not supporting you. I am sorry for not believing in you. I am sorry for not having faith in you. I am sorry Charmeine. If you let me show you, for the rest of my life until the end of time, I will never doubt you again.”
Charmeine said shaking her head, “Tabbruis, I can’t do this now.”
He pleaded, “Please let me finish?” Tabbruis looked at her in the eyes and declared, “Charmeine you are my life. You are my light. If you go back to Long Island…”
She got up and went to the stone railing of the terrace and said, “Tabbruis, it isn’t so easy putting Jack and Jill back together again. I really need to be alone.”
He came to the stone railing and said, “Look at me this time, Charmeine. I have to say my peace and I will leave.”
She turned and faced him with her hands across her chest and sighed.
He looked into her eyes and said, “If you go back to Long Island, I will accept it, but let me go and be near you. Let me live near you. I can buy any kind of house or apartment you wish for your own privacy. You do not need to see me, just let me be near you, for you are the center of my Earth. God knows I cannot live without being near you. You never have to lay your eyes on me. I just need to be near to you. That is what I ask. Nevertheless, please forgive me, Charmeine. Forgive me enough to let me just be near you. If you abandon me, I will not survive. Whatever you want, I will give it to you. Wherever you go, I will go with you.”
Tabbruis unfolded her arms and took her hands. He unclenched her fists and drew them up in front of them, palm to palm. Charmeine’s sparks were going up and down their bodies, enveloping them with light.
Charmeine asked, “Do you remember the first time this happened? You were trying to convince me not to leave and sacrifice myself to the Elder Council.”
Tabbruis replied, “Yes, I remember.” He drew nearer to her and asked, “I know you cannot lie to me Charmeine, do you have the strength to be without me either?”
She replied, “How long have you been working on that speech?”
He nodded with a slight smile and said, “Well, I have to admit, I have been rehearsing it ever since we left Smith Point Beach.”
With a suspicious eye, she said, “Well you are not lying… I thought so.”
Then Tabbruis’ eyes became like pools of tears. He said, “I am so afraid of what you are going to say, my heart feels like it has been incased in ice and cannot beat.”
Charmeine broke free from his hands and their circle of light was gone. She faced the Black Sea holding onto the stone fence of the terrace and took a big long breath of fresh air. Not looking at him, she said, “Tabbruis let me say although I was heartbroken you did not have faith, trust and belief in me, I know you are truly sorry which has healed my heart.”
Tabbruis started to reach for her, but she held up her hands willing him to keep his place.
Keeping her face to the Black Sea, she said, “Reconciliation seems like such a passé word but it’s really love… God knows I have so much love in my heart for you I cannot bear to be away from you also. I knew you came into my room and watched me while I slept after I came back from Long Island. I could feel your presence and then I could sleep. One night I was crying myself to sleep and you came over and held me until I fell asleep. God knows I love you. I see now we can’t be apart, because we are one.” She turned to look at him, “Looking into your eyes, Tabbruis, my love, I can see eternity. It was over before it begun, our destinies are one like it has been since God made us for each other.”
With relief, joy and love, Tabbruis embraced Charmeine.
Slowly he bent to kiss her softly. The kiss warmed Charmeine to the bottom of her soul. She said, “Semper tua ero, Husband.”
Smiling Tabbruis said, “Semper tuus ero, Wife.” He shook his head with tears running down his cheeks and said, “Pure love… God’s love was right here before my eyes, and I was such a doubtful fool.”
They kissed deeply.
Tabbruis pulled away and asked tentatively, “Will you? I mean… will you wear my ring?”
Charmeine smiled and answered, “Yes, of course.”
Tabbruis got the ring out of his pocket and slipped it on her finger. He bent down and kissed it and her hand.
She asked, “You have been carrying it around with you all this time?”
He replied, “Yes, I could not part with it or you.”
Charmeine said, “I see you never stopped wearing your band this whole time.”
Tabbruis said, “I could not even think of taking it off.”
They hugged and both melted into each other letting the stress of the past ease away.
Recently I have had a set back
However, I rose above the crisis with my inner peace
I know I did and am doing everything I can
As we look around, it is our loved ones who are our security
Let your love for your family and close friends shine.
If you need to do so, say you are “Sorry”
For it is in humility we learn to love ourselves as well as others!
